Hi Practo user, Get your father's Blood pressure checked twice a day, at least for a week. This is to confirm any fluctuations in blood pressure. High BP is the commonest cause of heaviness of tongue or slurring of speech in this age. For further queries and treatment, connect directly through Practo consultantion. Regards Dr Suman Mohan
